Saw some members on another board already piecing together a Bane costume. Wondered if anyone here was giving it a shot or had reference pics to share.

Look on comicbookmovie.com, they have a section wit hundreds of close ups of the real thing.
thanks, hope some board or bored members will put one together here
wow. those are the first up-close shots i've seen. i love the mask but holy hell have they stepped away from the traditional look or what?![]()
These shots were taken during a raffle after they just got done with a shoot and Tom Hardy gave away a car to the extras in the stadium. Not sure what Nolan is planning to do in the final editing with Bane. He might make Bane look bigger with camera angles and such? I am a big fan of Tom Hardy and think he will do a teriffic job. I have seen him in Bronson and The Take and he can be quite intimidating, scary and larger then life. I met him and Comic Con and he is pretty big.
In the teaser pic they first released of bane he had his tattoos covered by photoshop or makeup. But in the picture above he has them showing. Was he wearing sleeves during that scene or are they going to edit it out?
i think they would have had him in that big heavy coat while shooting, hiding his real life tattoo's.
i certainly hope they cover them up for scenes without the coat!
Yeah he was wearing the heavy coat during the scene he was filming there. After he was done he took it off to do the raffle and gave away a car and some other prices to the extras who were out in the stadium all day.
Are your F&*(ING! kidding me that! That is the best Nolan could do?!
I really like Banes getup. I don't know what people were expecting, I knew Nolan wouldn't be going for some Mexican wrestler-type villain for this. I'm glad he didn't, although I am a big fan of Bane in the comics. I can't wait for someone to finish this mask, or for DC to come out with one that I can pick up.
I wonder if the mask is gonna have some kinda nebulized Venom running into it, that's what I wanna know, I can handle a visual departure, for sure, but without Venom he really isn't going to much of a Bane. Final judgement will be reserved for next summer nonetheless.
Yeah I saw some people talking about the coat Bane is wearing in the stills and I was wondering if nobody knew what kind of coat that was, to me it kind of looks like a suede jacket with wool lining on the inside, but I can't be sure can somebody help me out, I would really appreciate it.
The coat looks like it has been customed from a Swedish M1 909 1940 army coat. Although there are some differences apart from the obvious wrong colour and material. The army coat has the wrong collar and there are no cuffs like on the Bane coat.
Wasn't Tom Hardy a whole lot bigger in "Bronson"? His arm's looked freaking ridiculous in that! Even in "Warrior" he towered over the other guys.
Rumors came out a while back that his boots incorporated 3" lifts (I've seen him called out at 5'9-10"). Also, here's an article/video addressing a potential solution to Hardy's size versus what fans expect to see of Bane: Tom Hardy Will Look Bigger For The Dark Knight Rises | Dark Knight Rises Rumors
To really pull this character off, I think most guys will want to incorporate in-shoe wedge lifts...
There is no doubt Tom Hardy can get in to what ever shape that a certain movie requires.
Especially with the help of a little juice. I am sure that Nolan has specified the size and shape he wants Bane to be and Tom has achieved this. At least anyone thinking about getting the "Bane look" will be inspired that they dont actually have to look like a man mountain. Good New years resolution goal though. I must get in shape.
